TECHNICAL FIELD

BACKGROUND OF THE PRESENT INVENTION

With the development of science and technology, UAVs have been widely applied in civil and military fields. The formation of multiple UAVs has become a trend today. All UAVs usually interaction information through point-to-point communication links to form a certain formation shape, and fly towards the target area while keeping this formation shape. The used communication links are called information interaction topologies for the UAV formation.

Communication faults may occur during the flight of the UAV formation. As a result, some communication links are unusable. Consequently, the UAV formation is unable to continue the task. In the prior art, faulty communication links are generally deleted, information interaction topologies corresponding to a three-dimensional persistent formation in the communication network at this time are acquired, and the task is continued based on the information interaction topologies.

However, it was found by the inventor of the present discourse that, during the practical application of methods in the prior art, since the UAV formation is in high-speed flying and it takes a long period of time to reacquire information interaction topologies in the prior art, the UAVs may collide with each other if the information interaction topologies for the UAV formation are not restored quickly, making the formation task failed. Therefore, there is a problem of low safety in the prior art.

In an embodiment of the present invention, a three-dimensional shape of a UAV formation when no communication interference occurs, an initial communication network D₁ and an initial information interaction topology T₁ are acquired; a set of communication links A₀ interrupted by the UAV formation when communication interference occurs is acquired; and a set of interrupted communication links A₁ in T₁ based on A₀ and T₁ is acquired; it is determined whether the set of interrupted communication links A₀ affects the initial information interaction topology T₁; if not, T₁ is considered as the final information interaction topology; and if so, a set of substitute reverse arcs of A₁ is acquired and A₁ is substituted with the substitute reverse arcs to obtain an information interaction topology T₂; it is determined whether the information interaction topology T₂ is a three-dimensional persistent graph; if so, T₂ is considered as the final information interaction topology; and if not, an undirected graph R₁ corresponding to T₂ is acquired; a set of spare edges is acquired based on R₁; and based on the set of spare edges, an arc corresponding to a spare edge is added in T₂ to obtain a final information interaction topology. In the embodiment of the present invention, first, it is tried to substitute a faulty arc with its reverse arc to restore part of an information interaction topology; and then, a spare edge is acquired and an arc corresponding to the spare edge is added, to obtain a complete information interaction topology corresponding to the three-dimension persistent formation. In this way, the UAV formation can keep the formation shape stably during a task. Both the safety and the reliability are high.

Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, during the specific implementation, the decision-making method is executed by a computer in a control center on the ground; and then the computation results are sent to each UAV. In this way, the quick generation of information interaction topologies for a multi-UAV three-dimensional formation is realized.

The steps will be specifically described below. In the S1, a three-dimensional shape of a UAV formation when no communication interference occurs, an initial communication network D₁ and an initial information interaction topology T₁ are acquired; a set of communication links A₀ interrupted by the UAV formation when communication interference occurs is acquired; and a set of interrupted communication links A₁ in T₁ is acquired based on A₀ and T₁.

Specifically, first, a three-dimensional shape S of a UAV formation when no communication interference occurs, an initial communication network D₁ and an initial information interaction topology T₁ are acquired.

In the embodiment of the present invention, total n UAVs form, by one-way communication between UAVs, a three-dimensional formation shape S and keep them in this formation shape. n positions in this formation shape S are numbered by {0 1,2, . . . ,n}, respectively.

An initial communication network for the UAV formation is D₁=(V, A) where:

V={v_(i)}, 1≤i≤n is a set of nodes represented by the UAVs, where v_(i) denotes UAV_(i), i.e., the i^(th) UAV; and

A={a_(ij)}⊆V×V, 1≤i, j ≤n is a set of arcs each formed by two nodes, where an arc a_(ij)=(v_(i), v_(j)) indicates that there is an available communication link from UAV_(i) to UAV_(j), by which UAV_(i) can send information to UAV_(j).

An information interaction topology for the UAV formation is T₁=(V, A*).

A* is a set of arcs corresponding to communication links in the information interaction topology.

A set of communication links A₀ interrupted by the UAV formation when a communication fault occurs is acquired. Specifically, there may be one or more interrupted communication links. In the embodiment of the present invention, A₀ is a set of arcs formed by all interrupted communication links.

A set of interrupted communication links A₁ in T₁ is acquired based on A₀ and T₁. Specifically, A₁ denotes a set of interrupted communication links in the initial information interaction topology T₁. That is:

A₁=A*∩A₀

In the S2, it is determined whether the set of interrupted communication links A₀ affects the initial information interaction topology T₁; if so, the process proceeds to S3; and if not, T₁ is considered as the final information interaction topology.

Specifically, the determination is as follows:

determining whether a set formed by the set of interrupted communication links A₁ is an empty set; if so, determining that A₀ does not affect T₁; and if not, determining that A₀ affects T₁.

That is, when there is no interrupted communication link in T₁, A₀ does not affect T₁. In this case, T₁ may be continuously used as the information interaction topology for the UAV formation.

In the S3, a set of substitute reverse arcs of A₁ is acquired and A₁ is substituted with the substitute reverse arcs to obtain an information interaction topology T₂; it is determined whether the information interaction topology T₂ is a three-dimensional persistent graph; if so, T₂ is considered as the final information interaction topology; and if not, the process proceeds to S4.

Specifically, the following steps are included.

S3012: It is determined whether a reverse arc of each faulty arc in the set of interrupted communication links A₁ is in D₂; if so, the reversed arc is considered as a set of substitute reverse arcs of the faulty arc in A₁; and if not, the determination for a next faulty arc is continued.

S3021: The set of interrupted communication links A₁ is deleted from the initial information interaction topology T₁ to obtain an information interaction topology T₁ ¹.

S3022: A substitute reverse arc a_(qp) is added in T₁ ¹.

S3023: It is determined whether the in-degree, in T₁ ¹, of a node v_(p) for the arc a_(qp) is more than 3.

If so, a node v_(k) in T₁ ¹, the in-degree of which is less than 3, is found; a path from v_(k) to v_(p) is acquired in T₁ ¹, with all arcs in a reversed path of the path being in D₂, and in T₁ ¹, and all arcs in the path are reversed.

If not, the addition of a next substitute reverse arc is continued.

S303: All substitutable faulty arcs are substituted with corresponding substitute reverse arcs to obtain the information interaction topology T₂.

In the embodiment of the present invention, during the specific implementation, first, it is determined whether the reverse arc of a faulty arc is in D₂; and if the reverse arc is in D₂, the reverse arc is used as the set of substitute reverse arcs of this faulty arc. All substitute reverse arcs are obtained and added in T₁ ¹ one by one. Then, it is determined whether to reverse all arcs in a path. If so, all arcs in the path are reversed to obtain the information interaction topology T₂.

It is to be noted that the present invention further provides another embodiment to acquire the information interaction topology T₂. Specifically, it is determined whether there is a substitute reverse arc for a first faulty arc in the set of interrupted communication links A₁; if there is a substitute reverse arc for the first faulty arc, the faulty arc is substituted with the substitute reverse arc, it is then determined whether to reverse all arcs in a path, and after the process of the first faulty arc ends, the determination whether there is a substitute reverse arc for a next faulty arc is continued; and if there is no substitute reverse arc for the first faulty arc, the determination whether there is a substitute reverse arc for a next faulty arc is directly performed followed by the subsequent operations. All substitutable faulty arcs are substituted with corresponding substitute reverse arcs to obtain the information interaction topology T₂.

S304: It is determined whether T₂ is a three-dimensional persistent graph; if so, T₂ is considered as the final information interaction topology; and if not, the process proceeds to S4.

In the S4, an undirected graph R₁ corresponding to T₂ is acquired, a set of spare edges is acquired based on R₁; and based on the set of spare edges, an arc corresponding to a spare edge is added in T₂ to obtain a final information interaction topology.

Specifically, acquiring the set of spare edges comprises:

acquiring an undirected graph R₂ corresponding to the communication network D₂; and deleting edges in the R₁ from the R₂ to obtain remaining edges as spare edges, all of which form the set of spare edges.

Acquiring the final information interaction topology comprises:

acquiring a stiffness matrix M corresponding to the R₁;

successively adding each spare edge in the stiffness matrix M, and determining whether the rank of the stiffness matrix M is full rank; if not, deleting the spare edge from the stiffness matrix M; and if so:

for any spare edge e_(ij), determining whether the in-degree, in T₂, of a node v_(j) for the spare edge e_(ij) is less than 3, with an arc a_(ij) being in the communication network D₂; if so, adding the arc a_(ij) in T₂ to obtain an information interaction topology T₃; and if not:

determining whether the in-degree, in T₂, of a node v_(i) is less than 3, with an arc a_(ji) being in the communication network D₂; if so, adding the arc a_(ji) in T₂ to obtain an information interaction topology T₃; and if not:
